A member asked:
If a person has possible hbv exposure and had all 3 immunizations in 2005, what has to be done? can i assume immunity or do i have to test?

Test: We get these though the ED all the time. Usually the vaccination status has to be verified with a hepatitis B surface antigen antibody. There are the occasional people who don't manifest the antibody after the third vaccine.
